Jim wasn't a good guy.

I disagree. Roy wasn't an asshole, he was just carefree and not mindful of others. Being an asshole is like being a bully and going out of their way to makes others suffer and that was not Roy.
I don't believe that you have to actively seek to hurt people to be an asshole. think that if you're completely inconsiderate of others (like he was), don't accept accountability, are dismissive of how you affect others, and won't even attempt to adjust your behavior then you're still an asshole.

He certainly starting improving those things after they broke up (actually, he got worse and got a DUI, but after the recovery he improved). We see later in the series that he got a lot better. And while his temper tantrum at the bar and attacking Jim weren't right, they were understandable.

But he was an asshole before the wedding was called off.
